Anti-Saloon Republicans.

In reviewing the temperance work of 1856. the
New York Mail and Express says:
The great event of the year has been the
growth and development of the anti-saloon move
ment. Regarded at first with contempt by its
natural enemies, with some jealousy and suspi
cion by its natural friends, it has outgrown the
one by its tremendous development aud con
ciated or silenced the other by the wisdom
with which it has been guided and the size to
enemies-the brewers and saloon keepers
are more afraid of it than of all the Pro
hibitionist movements moral suasion' move
ments that existed. With a platform
broad enough for all men to stand upon
who believe in temperance at all: with a body of
principles comprehensive enough to admit of ali
varieties of temperance sentiment and with
methods diverse enough to suit ali forms of tenn
perance agitation; with splendid organization:
with the backing of nine-fenths of the best and
strongest element of the old Republican party
the party that owed its strength and youth to
enthusiasm for great moral ideas and which
must owe its future. if it has any, to the same
sort of ideas that brought it into being and
nourished II into vigor and greatness; with all
these things, this new movement is so equipped
that he would be bold indeed who should put a
limit to its power or its usefulness"

Our State Educational Institutions.

20 the Editor of the indianapolis Journal
TO the people of Indiana their State educa-
tlonal institutions are justly source of pride.
Money voted for their support commands the ap-
proval of every large minded citizen. It is how
ever, easily noticeable to any one who will look
into the matter that some very marked changes
nave of late years been made in the general
policy and ends of those notwithstanding
not unquestionably for the best, and of which
the people Of the State are not generally aware
1t is generally supposed that Purdue University
is college of agriculture and of the mechanic
arts. very cursory examination of the course
of study. however, reveals the fact that large
percentage of the studies pursued have not even
a remote bearing upon agriculture and the me-
chanic arts The work is largely literary and
artistic. SO largely, indeed, that young ladies
find Purdue University good substitute for an
| ordinary college or Young ladies' seminary.
| Before the General Assembly votes any more
| money to Purdue its function as a part of the
| educational system of the State should be more
| sharply defined If the greater part OF the work
now done in that Institution is not essentially
different from that done at the State University
| at Bloomington, it is questionable whether the
former has valid claim upon the State treasury.
Indiana cannot afford to support two universities
unless it can be clearly shown that the function
of each is both Theoretically and practically dis
| tinct from the other.
| charge somewhat different in character lies
| against the State Normal School. 1t has not ex-
/ tended rs curriculum beyond its own legitimate
! held. On the contrary, it has gone to the extreme
of restriction. While In Its catalogue 1T puts "a
/ thorough and scientific knowledge of the COM
mon-schoo branches first, and ga knowledge of
the methods of teaching the common school
I branches" third. examination of its pub
lished course of study reveals the fact that the
| study of the theory and methods of teaching ex,
tends through nine terms, while the study of no
| one of the common school studies extends
through more than two knowledge of the sub
iects themselves is thus assigned to suhordin-
| ate position. while immense premium is put
| upon the study of fnesnun theories and com
| plcated methods of instruction The inevitable
| consequence of such policy must be to throw
into the public school service of the State class
of teachers who imagine that because they have
made a thorough study of somebody's theory of
school-teachine and methods of instruction it is
not particularly important that they should
thoroughly know the subjects they arc to teach.
This absurd doctrine means mischief to the
